THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Jonesboro approved an additional $136,000 in professional services for design and construction documents on a 17-acre park along Disciple Drive near NEA Hospital. The city has around $3.7 million available, including $1.6–$1.7 million in state grant funds, and is narrowing the program to what can be built within that budget. The main designer is in place, but this is a multi-phase park where future amenities, additional courts, trails, lighting, and site work may need later contracts or alternates, creating follow-on chances for park contractors and specialty vendors.
Public comments flagged scope changes versus the April 2025 concept; Craig Light clarified that current design moves from 60% to 100% plans for a reduced first phase compatible with existing grant funding.
